I don't know if it is what you are talking about, but my father has an old polaris 350, and the throtle is tempermental some times, it will not idle, we figured out that there is a switch in the throtle when you push the throtle a little we can hear the switch click, sometimes it will not idle, just kill, and push the throtle a little and it will run, but it does not always do it, sometimes it runs fine.

PS. ours is fun because the battery/starter are bad and we have to pull start it. try pushing in the throtle and pullstarting it. Reverse is even better, throttle, reverse override and then pull. tricky, but can be done alone.

If your cables stretch after years of use this will need to be adjsuted and can cause throttle problems.

My thoughts exactally. My 07 did the same thing, and a quick check of the throttle free play (there should be none) told me I needed to adjust the cable. That is where I'd start if I was you. Quick, easy, and best of all, free.

Here is an update on my idle problem on my ATV . I looked at the carb and cleaned it but I didn't pull it out and take the bowl off just disconnected it and cleaned it. Put new gas in it and it seemed to run better when it was really warm. When I started it the next morning I had to keep choking it off and on to keep it idling or it would quit, even after a few minutes of running. I was told by a service tech to address the carb 1st but when I looked at a troublshooting manual it said the carb would be the least likely out of all the possibilities. Any more ideas?

2/18/18 Got out on an area lake an hour before sunrise Saturday. Got a bunch of crappies until they slowed about 9 am. Most between 9.5 and 11 inches. Sunfish started biting about sunrise and bit all morning. Half of them were 8 to 8.5 inches. Most of the rest were 7 to 7.5 inches. Kept two meals of fish--released the rest. 1/32 ounce VMC Tungsten Tubbies tipped with a single wax worm or two red Eurolarvae fished just above some weeds in thirteen feet of water caught fish after fish. Lots of good ice on area lakes. Even though walleyes and pike close in just over a week and wheel houses can't stay out unattended soon, still a lot of good ice fishing for panfish to come. Will have plenty of ice for a while, so get out and enjoy the peace and quiet and fast crappie and sunfish action that March will bring. Good luck, and I will see you out there somewhere.

Had a chance to rub shoulders and fish with some of the ice team guys today. Great bunch of guys we had some good laughs and of course discussed plenty about fishing. Even shared a few hotspots. The hands on they give the people that sign up for this event is absolutely amazeing! From hands on to tips on everything to do to make your day on the ice way more productive. From what I witnessed it would be well worth the investment to sign up for one of there events , if you are new to fishing or heck even a seasoned angler. Fished with one guy from Nebraska said he has done 5 of these events and has enjoyed everyone of them. Fun day for sure

Royce, how’s the sensitivity Is the tip soft like a tickle stick and how’s quality seem? About same price as a tickle stick I see may have to try one for next season. If It passes with flying colors do you it must be good! Tough day for me not much happening went from about 8-29 FOW and just nothing. Found perch in about 19 but even they seemed finicky and would only hit the dead stick. A bit windy on the lake today to!

The warmer weather has brought alot of people out to the area. We are waiting for the later bite. Most are setup in shallowet water. Haven't marked fish yet but tendto see them at sunset.
Be careful with all the holes being drilled! I found one that was covered back in, got my shin, luckily not my ankle.

Started out in 26 feet this morning and had 5 dandy crappies in 15 minutes then it was over. moved a mile and found a few dandy gills in 16 feet. And a couple bass. Day 2 with the new rods and liking them more.
